Had a great day Wednesday fishing the delta with Colt45 and Randy Pringle (guide)

Randy runs the 'Best Bass Tournaments', which I like mainly cuz the initials are BBT, my initials!

Randy met us at the Flying J in Lodi on HWY 5, and took us and his boat to the ramp  We launched up and got started.  Randy starting teaching right away - tide flow (in freshwater) and impact on fish, sure enough we started hooking into some stripers fast.  George (aka Colt45) hooked into a monster 14# Striper, damn that was a nice hook up, fight and catch, I hooked into a couple smaller stripers - which was fun, that last striper I hooked into was spearfishing in the kelp as a kid in San Diego.  We then moved up the water and ended up in some heavily stained water - no fish, moved to clearer water, still few fish, then into less stained water, and starting hitting bass the rest of the day - felt like we were on a a fish show, so much catch and release going on.  Though it's funny, at first Colt45 went through a dry spell, then, around noon the dry spell moved to me - they were KILLING it, and I was like...yah, nice day though.  What a fun day.

Super fun day, worth the money, felt so weird leaving in the morning, no bait, not tackle, no rods, no boat, WTF?

learned how to toss some baits' I've never tossed successfully before, and some other new tricks.  We covered so much water, couldn't do that in my kayak - but fun to take advantage of the PB and cover some water.

I'd highly recommend Randy for any of you looking for a PB experience, he covers the delta and local lakes. Fun, informative, and  had all the necessary baits, rods, etc.

I plan to go out with him again.


Randy has a nice Bass Cat  boat that we fished
